Nitto recommends that your pressures be set around 34 psi cold and no more than 39 psi hot. Temperature range should be between 180-220 degrees F across the tire. Use your tire pyrometer to check the temperature differential across the tire to make sure your camber setting is correct.

Thanks for the info, so my tire pressures should have been ok. I searched online and seems a few people need to lower them in low 30 range heated up to find best traction(alignment issue?). I checked the wear on the front tires and looks like they wore slightly more on the inside. I think maybe the alignment does need a little less negative camber upfront or I can just drop my pressures down a little to wear further out?

Thx guys, I'm still trying to figure out where to mount the camera to video my faster runs my first idea where to put it looked like I was driving through a blizzard or bright cloud lol.

Sounds like there is about 35 cars so it should be exciting and theres def. people out to set records which is good and bad if they can't keep it on the road, but hopefully there won't be any serious injuries or down time.
